order to maintain homeostasis. C. Ribosomes
7. __i___Holds ribosomes that make proteins that D. Lysosome E. Nucleolus
will eventually leave the cell. F. Mitochondria
8. __F___Breaks down food and converts it into G. Cell Membrane
energy. H. Bacteria
9. ___K__Uses sunlight to make food for plants I. Rough ER
(photosynthesis). J. Smooth ER
10. __B___Packages proteins that come from the K. Chloroplast
rough ER and tags them so they can be shipped L. Vacuole
out of the cell.
11. ___A__Holds the DNA and is the control center
of a cell.
12. ___D__Degrades waste, pathogens, and
wornout organelles.
13. __H___Is a type of prokaryote.
14. __L___Is used for storage.
15. __J___Synthesizes lipids, which can be
used to make membranes and
hormones.
